Correct answer: C. Formation of secret alliances
The other items all fall more into the category of "immediate causes."
Explanation:
Pre-war alliances between European nations were made in secret and elevated diplomatic tensions within those governments. Or sometimes the fact that alliances were being made was announced publicly -- but the negotiations about the alliances were conducted behind closed doors. And often the terms of the alliances were kept secret, so that only the parties involved knew the full details. This business of conspiring and posturing in regard to alliances contributed to an attitude of escalating nervousness and tension as the nations of Europe maneuvered for strength over against their perceived adversaries. This was a fundamental problem that lay behind the ultimate outbreak of the Great War (as World War I was called at the time it occurred).
Answer:
The people of the nation should have the power to make that decision due to the fact that the leaders don't know everyone's struggle and that not everyone is being heard.
The Manga Carta (The Great Charter) is the one of most signifigant pieces of histroy. It recongizes 4 basic humans rights:
<span>(1) No taxes may be levied without consent of Parliament
(2) No subject may be imprisoned without cause shown (reaffirmation of the right of habeas corpus)
(3) No soldiers may be quartered upon the citizenry
(4) Martial law may not be used in time of peace.

These values are still reflected in today's societies and have become the basics of human rights as we know it.
Many whites wanted Indian land, and knew it would be easier to gain if the Indian tribes disappeared. With that statement appeared the Dawes Act, also known as the General Allotment Act, in February 1887. A scheme was soon developed for Indians that would allow individual Indians to own land for private use, and the Indians would be converted into capitalists.
